Chapter 707: Chapter 707 Mom, I am your daughter-in-law! _1
Time, in Tang Zhou’s exasperation, had gone past two long minutes. He could no longer hold back and blurted out, “Mom, Dad, I am Tang Zhou, Leng Chenmo’s wife. Leng Chenmo and I won the draw at the civil affairs bureau. You can see I’m a dashing and attractive youth. But don’t be alarmed, I’m actually a girl!”
Tang Zhou felt it was necessary to show off his strength in lightening the mood, “When Leng Chenmo was down on his luck, I took him in. I fed him; I clothed him and all the clothes he wears are bought by me!”
“Down on his luck?” Song Chuanqi narrowed his eyes at Tang Zhou, his voice deepening, “What do you mean?”
Tang Zhou explained indignantly, “The Leng’s family found out he wasn’t of Leng’s bloodline and kicked him out of the home. He then couldn’t afford the single tax and decided to draw a number at the civil affairs bureau, where he drew me. If I hadn’t taken him in, he’d now be living under a bridge eating bread and drinking tap water. Thankfully, I had the foresight, and despite people’s objections, I decided to take him home. How else would you be able to meet such an extraordinary son like Leng Chenmo, right?”
He had to emphasize his kindness, otherwise, what would happen when Leng Chenmo would turn his life around and become the Imperial Grandson of Country S? How would he face him?
Tang Zhou was seriously worried for himself!
Song Chuanqi was suddenly furious and his eyes turned red, “They kicked you out? Just as well, does my son care about the measly inheritance from the Leng’s family?”
Dear Uncle, did you not catch the point of my statement? The emphasis was on me taking Leng Chenmo in during his hard times!
Although Leng Chenmo physically left the Leng’s family, he always held gratitude towards his parents, “My parents have always been good to me, I left the Leng’s family voluntarily. They didn’t kick me out. The details are somewhat complex, but they never treated me badly.”
Hearing Leng Chenmo defending the Leng’s family, Song Chuanqi felt both jealous and frustrated. The mature and steady man in front of him had long surpassed the age when he needed parents. Given that he hadn’t done anything for his son, what right did he have to judge others?
Regret. All he was left with was regret.
Bai Lanwu shifted her gaze to Tang Zhou. Staring at Tang Zhou, whose feminine features contrasted his masculine clothing, she wiped the corner of her eyes, “Daughter-in-law?”
“Yes, mom, I am your daughter-in-law!” Tang Zhou could not help but wipe away his tears. Finally, someone was acknowledging his existence!
After finishing, Tang Zhou added in a breath, “State-allocated! Mom, do you like me?”
Bai Lanwu didn’t know what to make of it; her daughter-in-law looked like a boy.
Tang Zhou held Bai Lanwu’s arm, snuggling up to her, “Mom, Leng Chenmo depended on me entirely during this time. Otherwise, he would have been bullied to death by people in our circle. Ever since he was kicked out of the Leng’s family, many people couldn’t wait to see him fail and took pleasure in his misfortunes. I defended him from all the ridicule and laughter. It was all me!”
“Thank you.” No one could resist the passionate Tang Zhou.
Leng Chenmo, who had been unsure about how to converse with Song Chuanqi and Bai Lanwu, now felt warmth seeing Tang Zhou so earnestly trying to win their hearts. He didn’t know if Tang Zhou had won Song Chuanqi and Bai Lanwu’s hearts, but his own heart was undeniably warmed.
His dark and restrained eyes landed on Tang Zhou, unable to hide the feelings of affection welling up in him. Bai Lanwu noticed it all.
